custom vs usaGibson Sg 50th anniversary usa W/57 Classic vs Gibson CS sg Standard CW W/Burstbucker 1-2

 

example two starts at 2 minutes. Both were at first take so it's rough and a bit slappy, and as always a bit to much gain. can you spot the difference?

 

Edit:

First one is sg custom shop. It was a bad example, played through distortion box and into a cheap recorder. Got a well earned -1 for this stuff :-"

I'm betting the first is Burstbucker, sounds like there's more bite and girth, specially in the pick attack. Very hard to distinguish any differences, though.

 

{edit}And then I read the post all the way through....Fail on my part

Apples and apples, as far as I'm concerned. I wonder how bargain basement pickups would compare.....

I take your word on that one, tomorrow it's my good ol' epi g 400 w/stock epi pickups [biggrin]

I'll look forward to that!

 

BTW, your setup sounds very good, nice classic rock crunch.

thanks man. Haven't played my epi in a couple of years, so it's gonna be fun.
